- That bomb was at the concert in Stockholm. Deicide played in a (small) arena,
- and the bomb was placed at a back door, just behind the stage. Only the door
- and the outer side of the wall was damaged.
- One thing is that I'm not sure if the bomb was directed at Deicide...
- The bands announced were (in the playing order):
-
- Furbowl (Swedish band you probably haven't heard of)
- Therion
- Gorefest
- Atrocity
- Deicide
-
- Furbowl didn't play for some reason and the bomb exploded during Gorefest's
- set. If you were out to get rid of Deicide, why would you let the bomb explode
- while (supposedly) Therion were playing?
- Therion has a load of death threats from the Norwegian Black Metal
- circle hanging over them, and if they had played as second band and if the
- bomb had been more effective, then they would have been in small pieces now.
-
- Anyway, Gorefest finished their set as only a few people had realised that
- there had been a bomb. You could barely hear the explosion, and myself I
- (and many others) just thought it was some failed stage pyrotechnics.
- After a while the police arrived and they decided to stop the concert as
- they were afraid that there could be more bombs around. Everyone did like
- this decision though (like, say, the 1200+ of us who had payed entrance)
- so they let Deicide play 4 songs to avoid too much rioting. There was some
- trouble anyway I've heard, but I had left by then.
-
- So, in short, I payed loads of money to see five bands, I got two and a half
- and the chance of more big Death Metal concerts in Stockholm has decreased.
- Fuck Fuck Fuck!
